It seems Shiloh has a rival in the bid to be Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's coolest little kid. 

Little Knox, who turns three in two weeks, made a fashion statement of his own in a pair of dark sunglasses while on an outing with his famous mother and twin sister Vivienne in London today. 

It comes just days after Shiloh, five, styled out a pair of flashy green shutter shades at Los Angeles airport. 

Jolie and her twins were leaving a cinema in Richmond after the entire brood - including Maddox, 9, Pax, 7, Zahara, 6, and Shiloh - enjoyed a private screening of the new Harry Pottter film.

Did Lucian Freud love his art more than his children?

By BARBARA DAVIES

As their father’s frailty became increasingly apparent in the final days of his life, several of Lucian Freud’s children knocked on the door of his Notting Hill home. 

For some of them, it can’t have been the easiest of visits.

Freud, who died on Thursday aged 88, had at least 14 children by several different mothers — although a friend once reckoned that the artist may have fathered as many as 40. Three daughters were born in the same year. 

Lucian Freud first marriage ended when he embarked on an affair with Lady Caroline Blackwood (right), whom he married in 1953

Two were given the same name — their long-suffering mothers unaware of the full extent of Freud’s infidelity.

Few of them called Freud ‘Father’ or ‘Dad’, and — astonishingly — only a handful were allowed to have his telephone number or address. Some spent a lifetime yearning for a relationship with the reclusive painter so adored by the art world.

In many cases, they found that the easiest way to do this was to pose for his paintings, even if it meant taking off their clothes and sitting naked for hours in front of their father.
